- 1 chopped spring onion

- 1 tsp chives (more for topping)

- Oil for frying

Who knew vegan cooking could be this egg-ceptionally delicious and simple?
How to Make It
Alright, let’s get cracking—well, kind of! You’ll want to start by mixing up 250g of Crackd The No-Egg Egg with half a tablespoon each of rice wine vinegar and sesame oil, plus a pinch (half a teaspoon) of kala namak. This magical black salt is your secret weapon to get that unmistakable eggy flavor without any actual eggs. Whisk it all together until it’s a tasty scramble party in your bowl.
Now, heat up some oil in a pan over medium heat. When it’s nice and hot, pour in your vegan egg mixture and keep stirring like you’re on a cooking show with a ticking clock. The goal is to get that fluffy scramble texture—don’t just dump and run. Once it’s looking like scrambled eggs without the guilt, slide it over to the side.
In a fresh pan (because we’re fancy like that), toss in 150g of halved baby tomatoes and a chopped spring onion with a splash of oil. Let those beauties sizzle gently for a couple of minutes until they’re soft and juicy.
Here’s where the magic sauce happens: stir in a tablespoon of tomato paste, a teaspoon of sugar, a splash of soy sauce (about a tablespoon), and a pinch of salt. If your pan tries to dry out or the heat’s a little too intense, add a splash of water and turn the temp down—nobody likes a burnt bottom!
Mix everything up so the tomatoes soak up that rich, tangy tomato goodness. Then, fold your vegan scramble back in and sprinkle some chives on top for a fresh, green finish. Voila! A plant-based twist on a classic that’s as satisfying as it’s sneaky. Get ready to impress your taste buds and your vegan friends alike!
Bonus Tips

- Feeling fancy? Swap baby tomatoes for sun-dried ones and watch your stir fry turn into a tangy, chewy love story.
